AS-1．Stochastic & Approximate Computing and VLSI Design Technologies
This symposium is planned to discuss how to design and implement Stochastic Computing andApproximate Computing in VLSI, which have attracted attention in recent years, throughpresentation of the latest research. Researchers related to this theme and VLSI designers will
gather and discuss at this symposium in order to deepen research on this theme and developthese technologies.

ABS-1．Expanding UWB Technology - Regulation and Standardization Trends Together With
Expective Applications Because of its outstanding superiority on ranging/localization and short distancecommunications, ultra-wideband (UWB) technique has been attracting attentions inhigh-reliable wireless communications, high precision ranging/localization, and body areanetwork (BAN). In recent years, standardization activities within IEEE 802.15, domestic UWBde-regulation, and domestic standardization have been continued. Moreover, products withbuild-in UWB have been developed for car and iPhone. This symposium provides a forum forpresenting the new trends on UWB standardization, domestic UWB de-regulation, andup-to-date research outputs for various applications using UWB.

BS-1．Wireless sensing technology for realizing a smart society
The importance of sensing technologies has been increasingly recognized in an attempt to realizea smart society, which is also known as Society 5.0. In particular, hardware and software aspectsof wireless sensing are expected to play an important role because they are the basis of various
novel wireless sensing applications such as wireless vital sensing and drone detection andtracking. On the hardware side, novel wireless sensing technologies are emerging with the helpof hardware innovation such as wireless power transmission and distributed antenna systems
using radio-over-fiber. On the software side, a large amount of information is expected to becollected using a limited number of sensors with the help of information science techniques
represented by machine learning, clustering and independent component analysis. Thissymposium invites papers related to antennas, propagation and systems, and discusses thelatest technical achievements of wireless sensing.

BS-2．Latest technologies and future perspective of high throughput satellites (HTS)In recent years, demands for high throughput satellites (HTS) and ultra-high-speed opticalsatellites, which can provide large scale data transmission capacity compared to theconventional communication satellites, are increased with the innovation of advanced
information and communications society. The HTS adopts higher frequency such as Ka band andcarries the multi-beam antenna for improving frequency utilization efficiency. Further, theultra-high-speed optical satellites provide broadband data transmission capabilities what seems
to be unattainable by radio waves. These advanced satellites are expected to be applied tovarious areas in the society. This symposium will present newest technologies and theirapplications to the researchers and affiliates who are interested in the HTS andultra-high-speed optical satellites.

BS-3．Radio Access Technologies and Proof-of-Concept Activities Towards Further Developmentof 5G
The 5th generation (5G) cellular communication systems are launched. This symposium session
aims to discuss related technologies toward the future development of 5G such as radio accesstechnology, standalone 5G networking technology, use case analysis and proof-of-concept
activities in local 5G and closed networks, and new technologies for future cellularcommunication systems. In addition, invited lectures are presented to clarify the direction of theresearch and developments.

BS-4．Special Poster Session ~ Network Technology ~This session handles themes on Network Technology. The presentation style is poster session sothat people in the room including speakers could hold an active and fruitful discussion anytime
during the session and could have feedback or tips for his or her own study. As the session aims
to have a discussion about research topics in progress, 1 written paper would be sufficient.

BS-5．Underwater Wireless Technologies
Underwater wireless technologies using acoustic waves, optical waves, and RF waves gains
attentions from both industry and academic researchers towards opening up new application
fields. We invite submissions on a wide range of research topics related to underwater wirelesstechnologies.

BS-6．Energy Electroncs technologies in the society of wireless power supply
Wireless power supply is expanding not only to sensor devices but also to applications such asmobility.In this symposium, power devices and components for realizing wireless power supply,
and application are to be discussed.

BS-7．System Design based on Quality of Experience for Smart Society
Recently, the concept of super smart society has been proposed, which integrates cyberspace andphysical space to realize a comfortable society where everyone can receive high quality services.
To realize the super smart society, the system design based on Quality of Service (QoS) isinsufficient, and the system design based on QoE (QoE: Quality of Experience) that evaluates
the quality of experience of individual users will become increasingly important. Therefore, thissession provides opportunity to discuss about issues of the QoE based system design.

BS-8．Network and Service Design, Control and Management
The 5G service will launch soon, and new ICT technologies such as deep-learning AI, IoTsecurity, are studied and developed widely. Therefore, the network and service design, controland management are getting more important. In this session, authors are invited to submit
their papers regarding the network design, control and management technologies from various
aspects such as performance, quality, reliability, security, and usability.

ABS-1．Expanding UWB Technology - Regulation and Standardization Trends Together With
Expective Applications Because of its outstanding superiority on ranging/localization and short distancecommunications, ultra-wideband (UWB) technique has been attracting attentions inhigh-reliable wireless communications, high precision ranging/localization, and body area

CS-1．Recent progress on electromagnetic field analysis with frequency-dispersive medium
Recently, electromagnetic field analyses for frequency-dispersive medium are required for wide
frequency region, for example microwave frequency, millimeter-wave frequency, THz, infrared,
and visible light region. Furthermore, there are various kinds of materials to be analyzed, suchas metals, dielectric medium and so on. This symposium session is organized for electromagnetic
field analyses for frequency-dispersive medium. We also discuss about the state of art techniquesof electromagnetic field analyses fabricated for frequency-dispersive medium.

D: Information and Systems SocietyDS-1．COMP Student Symposium
In the field of theoretical computer science, wide spread view over various topics is necessary foroutstanding researches, and only those with such view can develop the research frontier.
Therefore, academic exchange among students with different research themes is effective forsupporting the growth of high-level researchers. <br>The purpose of this symposium is toprovide opportunities for their research communication. The presenters are required to bestudents, while the other coauthors may be regular members.
